5. The Fiend's Booking Hole

WWE made such a colossal arse of Hell in the Cell's Universal Championship contest that they somehow managed to entirely destroy the aura of The Fiend, whilst also turn the entire audience in attendance against hitherto hero Seth Rollins.

So what was the next step? Drop the feud dead before it could do any more damage? Rehabilitate The Fiend with a squash over Rollins, taking the red strap from their failing champion in the process?

Both those would be splendid ideas, but for the fact Wyatt was drafted to SmackDown, meaning the Universal Title pretty much has to stay on Raw's Rollins. What's more, WWE can't even pull a non-finish which sees Bray live up to his name by forcing a brutal no-contest, thanks to their iron-clad 'match cannot be stopped for any reason' stipulation in response to Hell in a Cell. In other words, it's a complete mess.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
